The War Memorial



The Victoria war memorial situated in the beach road is dedicated especially for the soldiers who have bravely lost their lives on the battlefields due to World War I and World War II


This place is situated near the beach and contains the names and ranks off all the soldiers of the Madras Presidency who had lost their lives . And the whole structure is of a Cylindrical kind of shape surrounded by plants, trees, and grass beds . The whole place is made in the circular form to facilitate the movement of traffic. The government takes good measures to take care of the security and the cleanliness of the place , there are two armed army soldiers who guard the place.

Well it was shocking that this place is not known by all ... Over the years many have forgotten such a a place existed. The information about this place was not even in Wikipedia which provides information of all the places and all the junk form definitions of nuclear physics and the recent fitness routine
of Bipasha ....

Well what to say its upto the historians to find more details about the place and put the information online and as far as i am concerned i would prefer if there is a subject in standards of 7th or 8th which told the students in an around the local city and encourage them to have a good knowledge about the places. And as far as Victoria War Memorial is concerned people should pay some tribute to the soldiers who had a brave death by at least visiting the place.
